I put my pumpkins in the garden last sunday.

The first true leaf have emerged on 2 of my plants yesterday.
Sadly, 1 plant didn't emerge.

Looks like a good season so far!

The 2nd true leaf is starting to emerge.

Anyone else from Manitoba growing a pumpkin this year?

My plants are growing like weeds. Can't wait to pollinate but that's about a month away.

Hello northpumkin, how are your plants now? I'm growing again this year, im north west of you about 4 hrs drive, along the sk border, I'm actually alot closer to bossen. I've got 2 main plants again, and afew at a secondary spot which will recieve less care. As for my 2 main plants 1 of which is my own 853 from last year is around 7' out and the 2nd plant, a 1381 checkon is about 5'. Last year my vines were only in the 4-5 ft range around the 25th of june. Good luck this year.
